Unusual Suns

Miguel Aquilizan and Costantino Zicarelli

‍

In Unusual Suns, Miguel Aquilizan and Costantino Zicarelli freely assume the roles of conjurers, but instead of spirit what appears before the viewer are the artists’ dreams of form and material.

The objects, in shapes of their own invention, may very well be apparitions of a certain kind, ambiguous and implicit until recognisable figures pull one out of the wonder. The figures, although disfigured—a plaster bust or fiberglass arm—tether the exhibition to a world-to-be, one that might be built through the unlikely pairing of the tactical and the mystical.

Such is at the intersection of the artists’ practices, a manifestation of shared tendencies: the processual collection of salvaged parts for later use, and a strong fascination for ritual. The viewer is invited to coexist.
